It sucks. I did one with 20 of these. It was be slow and crash in about a year with failures. Not worth the time unless you already have a ton of these lying around and you like building stuff like this.
The usb part that actually stores the data is actually similarly small in size,the port however needs to be that size
Yeah, yeah, the stubborn handles that just won't go away, I've heard it before.
Has he tried losing weight?
Now he's exFAT
"Ah, finally a new format the everyone supports!"
*goes to next computer*
Not supported
At some point you just say "fuck compatibility", and format the card with F2FS without a partition table.
I don't understand. That's compatible with all my devices.
F2FS mentioned!

...it means File Allocation Table, adding the 32 was just insult to injury...
FAT12 and FAT16 were a thing as well.
I remember having to implement fat12 in assembly. Good times...

It was a Uni project, back then even svn was a new and scary tech. I doubt I have a copy.

Nope, there's already littlefs, FatFs and also lwext4 for microcontrollers.

12 isn't exactly teen, is it? ;) Must I have lived through it to know about it? :P
What do you mean twelveteen isn't a teen?
I fear what that could mean for someone being eightteen
Dang. 1,000,000,000,000 bytes vs 1,440,000* bytes. And in about 1/100th the size!
Fatty took more bites and still lost weight.
Soemtimes less is Moore's!
I think you mean 1,440,000 bytes
Aw shit I sure do 😅
